Bias 인가된 hot filament CVD 방법을 이용해 티타늄을 RF sputtering 법으로 고속도강에 피복하여 중간 층으로 한 후 다이아몬드 박막을 피복할 때 bias 전압의 영향과 계면 층의 특성을 조사하였다. 다이아몬드 증착 시 bias가 인가될 경우 필라멘트에서 전자 방출이 촉진되어 다이아몬드 핵생성과 성장을 촉진시켰으며 본 실험에서의 최적 증착 조건은 증착 압력 20 torr, bias 인가전압 200V, 기판온도 $700^{\circ}C$로 나타났다. 강에의 다이아몬드 박막 형성 시 중간 층으로서의 티타늄은 Fe 및 C에 대한 확산도가 높고 탄화물 형성 원소이므로 다이아몬드 핵생성 및 성장에 적합한 원소로 나타났다.

To apply diamond films in microelectromechanical systems(MEMS), it is necessary to develop the patterning technologies of diamond films in the micrometer scale. In this paper, three different kinds of technologies for patterning CVD diamond films carried out by us were demonstrated: selective growth by improved diamond nucleation in DC bias-enhanced microwave plasma chemical vapor deposition (MPCVD) system, selective growth of seeding using diamond-particle-mixed photoresist, and selective etching of oxygen ion beam using Al as the mask. It was show that high selectivity and precise patterns had been achieved, and all the processes were compatible with IC process.

As methane concentration was varietal, the textures of diamond films deposited on Si(100)substrate could be observed by XRD, SEM and Raman spectroscope. As a result, O$_2$plasma etching has been useful to observe microscopic structure of diamond films by SEM. The cross section of diamond films deposited on Si(100) substrate with 4% concentration of methane to hydrogen was a polycrystal like a pillar. The diamond crystal like a pillar has been oriented to (110) surface and the high quality diamond with FWHM of Raman spectra being 3.8cm$\^$-1/ has been grown. As time goes by deposition time, the preferred orientation increases.

To investigate the effects of pretreatment and substrate bias on the characteristics of the diamond thin films, the thin films were deposited on the p-type Si(100) wafer by MPECVD using mixtures of $H_2$, $CH_4$, and $O_2$ gases. Deposition was carried out at the substrate temperature of $900^{\circ}C$ and at the pressure of 40torr. The effect of the pretreatment on the film formation was the examined by using SiC and diamond powders as abrasive powders. Furthermore, the substrate bias effect on the formation of the diamond film was also examined. The highest nucleation density was observed for the pretreatment with 40~60$\mu\textrm{m}$ size of diamond powders and a negative bias potential(-50V). Many defects and(111) twins in the diamond films were observed.

Diamond thin films were deposited on Si substrate using $CH_4 and H_2$mixed gas by RF plasma CVD. Prior to deposition, the substrate surface was mechanically scratched with the diamond paste of $3{\mu}m$ to improve the density of nucleation sites. The microstructure of diamond films deposited with methane(0.5%~2%) at the reaction pressure ranging from 20 torr to 50torrr were studied by a scanning electron microscope. It was observed in the deposited diamond films that the nucleation density decreased and crystallinity increased with decreasing the methane concentration. However, the nucleation density and crystallinity were decreased with decreasing the process pressure.

Diamond thin films were deposited on pretreated Co cemented tungsten carbide (WC-6%Co) inserts as substrate by microwave plasma chemical vapor deposition (MPCVD) system, equipped with a 915MHz, 30kW generator for generating a large-size plasma. The substrates were pretreated with two solutions Murakami solution $[KOH:K_3Fe(CN)_6:H_2O]$ and nitric solution $[HNO_3:H_2O]$ to etch, WC and Co at cemented carbide substrates, respectively. The deposition experiments were performed at an input power of 10 kW and in a total pressure of 100 torr. The influence of various $CH_4$ contents on the crystallinity and morphology of the diamond films deposited in MPCVD was investigated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Raman spectroscopy. The diamond film synthesized by the $CH_4$ plasma shows a triangle-faceted (111) diamond. As $CH_4$ contents was increased, the thickness of diamond films increased and the faceted planes disappeared. Finally, Faceted diamond changed into nano-crystalline diamond with random crystallinity.

Diamond thin films were deposited on n-type (100) Si wafers from $H_2-CH_4$ gas mixture by rf PACVD. Prior to deposition, mechanical scratching was done to improve density of nucleation sites with diamond paste of 3${\mu}m$. The microstructure of deposited diamond thin films was studied by using the following conditions : discharge power of 500W, $H_2$ flow rate of 50sccm, reaction pressure of 20torr, and $CH_4/H_2$ ratio of 0.3$\sim$1%. The deposited diamond thin films showed that the crystallite was increased at the lower methane concentration. The deposited thin films were characterized by Scanning Electron Microscopy. Raman Spectroscopy and Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy.

Laser cutting of thick diamond films is studied using a low-power(10 W) copper vapor laser. Due to the existence of the saturation depth in laser cutting, thick diamond films are not easily cut by low-power lasers. In this study, we have adopted a low thermalconductivity underlayer of alumina and a heating stage (up to 500$^{\circ}C$ in air) to prevent the laser energy from consuming-out and, in turn, enhance the cutting efficiency. Aspect ratio increases twice fromm 3.5 to 7 when the alumina underlayer used. Adopting a heating stage also increases aspect ratio and more than 10 is obtained at higher temperatures than 400$^{\circ}C$. These results show that thick diamond films can be cut, with low-power lasers, simply by modifying the thermal property of underlayer.

Experimental works were performed to implement the hetero-epitaxial growth of diamond films on the (100)- and (111)-oriented Si substrates. The deposition process used to prepare diamond films consisted of a bias-enhanced nucleation(BEN) step, accompanied with a growth step using a microwave plasma CVD system. The highly oriented diamond films were deposited under the growth condition of relatively low methane concentrations and high temperatures. Material properties and surface morphologies of deposited diamond films were improved by the addition of carburization step into the deposition process.
